Nokia Releases HERE Explore App For Windows Phone Devices

Nokia has released a new location service app called HERE Explore. HERE Explore is similar to Windows Phone’s local scout feature. It helps you find places using a new contextual recommendation engine.

You can explore places around you if you are looking for a good restaurant, or a place to watch the movie, etc,. HERE Explore Beta recommends places to go based on your location, the quality of places, and the time of day. If you like some places on the search results, you can save these to your own private collections.

Features:

• See recommendations based on where you are or where you want to go • Search for places around you from a customizable list of categories • Customize the app and make your favorite searches even quicker to access. • See search results displayed in a list, on a map, or in LiveSight • One-tap access to more place information, such as photos, reviews from trusted sources and contact information • Add photos and reviews of places you’ve been • Get drive, walk or public transport directions to a place • Hold up your smartphone to see floating signs that show you where places are located and tap to see more about that place • To remember and save places, add them to your own private collection
